I think this addon got too less attention I think it's one of the best things I made.

http://www.wowinterface.com/download...HoverName.html

It shows in a big, easy-readable font the name of the unit you are hovering over, class colored or for mobs reaction colored. No more need for scanning that tooltip for the information you want. Extremely useful in BG's.

I dont see the need of an addon for this ... in 90% of
all situations in wow I know what mobs I run into
10% is leveling phase and there I get a quest and a direction where
I find certain mobs. I find it distracting when I get something so
unimportant as a mobs name is blinking on my screen.

That is what this addon replaces, because I don't like having huge tooltips in the middle of my screen.

Talking Much love for this addon

Okay i must say... Well done NC... Hope you dont mind (not sure if this mod was specifically meant to stay within your compilation or not) but i had to borrow it for my own personal addon collection. Was amazed when i first saw it, simply amazed and wondered if nobody had thought of doing something similar to this previously, seemed then and still does, a purely genius approach to a certain aspect of the 3d world. Sorry for the ramblings but again, much love to you for this addon keep up the great work!

Hey nc,

I Love it. Dont Know Why Blizz didnt implement such a cool idea in their own ui.
Thank you for this!

Sorry for bad english and have a nice day.
